Principales causas de la problemática de hacinamiento carcelario, sociedad y estado

Abstract

Las cárceles colombianas se caracterizan por el hacinamiento, las graves deficiencias en materia de servicios públicos y asistenciales, el imperio de la violencia, la extorsión y la corrupción, y la carencia de oportunidades y medios para la resocialización de los reclusos. Esta situación se ajusta plenamente a la definición del estado de cosas inconstitucional. Y de allí se deduce una flagrante violación de un abanico de derechos fundamentales de los internos en los centros penitenciarios colombianos, tales como la dignidad, la vida e integridad personal, los derechos a la familia, a la salud, al trabajo y a la presunción de inocencia, etc. Durante años, la sociedad y el Estado se han cruzado de brazos frente a esta situación, observando con indiferencia la tragedia diaria de las cárceles, a pesar de que ella representaba día a día la trasgresión de la Constitucióny de las leyes. Las circunstancias en las que transcurre la vida en las cárceles exigen una pronta solución. En realidad, el problema carcelario representa no sólo un delicado asunto de orden público, como se percibe actualmente, sino una situación de extrema gravedad social que no puede dejarse desatendida. Pero el remedio de los males que azotan al sistema penitenciario no está únicamente en las manos del INPEC o del Ministerio de Justicia. Y se debe requerir a distintas ramas y órganos del poder público para que tomen las medidas adecuadas en dirección a la solución de este problema.

Colombian prisons are characterized by overcrowding, serious gaps in public and welfare services, the rule of violence, extortion and corruption, and lack of opportunities and resources for social rehabilitation of prisoners. This situation is fully consistent with the definition of unconstitutional state of affairs. And from there a flagrant violation of a range of fundamental rights of prisoners in Colombian prisons, such as the dignity, life and physical integrity, the right to family, health, work and the assumption it follows innocence, etc. For years, the society and the state have crossed arms in front of this situation, casually watching the daily tragedy of prisons, even though it represented everyday transgression of the Constitution and the laws. The circumstances in which life in prison require a quick solution. Actually, the prison problem is not only a sensitive issue of public policy, as currently perceived, but a situation of extreme social gravity can not be left unattended. But the remedy for the ills that plague the prison system is not only in the hands of the INPEC or the Ministry of Justice. And it should require different branches and public bodies to take appropriate measures towards solving this problem.
